Built on a spur dominating the confluence of the Lémance and the Lot, it was restored around 1130 by the monks of the Saint-Géraud d'Aurillac abbey. It was sold as national property during the Revolution and the west wing was demolished. The site was used successively as a rectory, girls' school and hostel, and now hosts exhibitions.
